 DIVIDEND:
 
 As a matter of sound accounting practice and management philosophy,
 your Directors are of the opinion to make sound and strong economic
 base for the Company and in order to conserve the resources; your
 Directors do not recommend any dividend for the current year.
 
 PRINT MEDIA:
 
 Sambhaav Metro a Multi colour tabloid Gujarati noon newspaper
 published from Ahmedabad and Abhiyaan a Gujarati weekly published
 from Mumbai are having good readership growths during the year.
 
 The management is also planning to bring out the above publication in
 digital formats begin with first the flagship publication Abhiyaan
 weekly and later on Sambhaav Metro during the current financial year.
 
 We are also trying to add some more newspapers/ periodicals in our job
 work division in the coming period which will enhance the job wok
 revenue also.
 
 OUT OF HOME (OOH) MEDIA:
 
 Outdoor is a visual medium and the medium itself shapes up as a part of
 your brand story, this enables endless possibilities in creating
 communication which is out of the box, brand relevant and can connect
 with the consumers provided it is intelligent and simple.
 
 In outdoor medium is the message, a phrase well demonstrated by this
 campaign as the medium not only took the shape of the product but
 enlarged it many times to create the desired impact. This coupled with
 strategic placement makes this innovative and effective outdoor usage
 in recent times.
 
 The Indian OOH Industry is still unorganized and quite fragmented, and
 though there is no official calculation, it is guesstimated to be
 around Rs 2,000 crore static and digital inclusive. This comprises
 billboards, mobile vans and airport media. It is expected to grow up to
 Rs 5,000 crore in the coming few years, expected to be led by digital
 OOH media especially. The ad industry grows to Rs 35,000 crore, size of
 digital OOH TV would be between 3 per cent and 5 per cent of the ad
 industry. About 70 per cent of this would belong to two national
 players and we hope to continue being the leaders of digital OOH TV
 industry. Also, growth of the medium would not be just being in scale
 of the medium, but advertiser understanding of the medium as well.
 Currently, peop''e buy locations, but with research the play would
 evolve to tracking audiences. The end game has to be about audiences
 and not about locations.
 
 During the year the company has acquired the display of hoarding rights
 from Ahmedabad Education Society for 24 hoardings for a period of three
 years.
 
 AUDIO - VIDEO MEDIA:

 growth, freshness and ability to engage audience thereby deliver
 impact.  Through this innovation the medium delivered all the
 objectives and created buzz.

 video media is developing very fast in Public Transport System or viz.
